    Being a guerrilla woman is tough. My friend’s mom told us stories about when she used to be a fighter. Her and her husband joined the Communist guerillas in Central America and were living in the jungle for a few years. Decades later she still has health issues from the contaminated water they were drinking most of the time. What’s worse is she told us how women were treated like objects in the guerilla army. Didn’t matter if you were married, if the commander or officers wanted you that night, it was an order, didn’t matter what you or your husband thought of it, they were told it was their duty to let it happen
